Sailor For Hire.com - Private sailing instruction, charters and deliveries serving Maryland, Virginia, DC

Its your day and your vessel so my first question to you is "What do you want to achieve from today's lesson".

The average hire is for a day. Between 6 and 8 hours but I'm very flexible. While we get aquatinted, we walk along the boat and I and answer any questions you might have. I will give you my honest opinion on what I see and also what may or may not need to be fixed, altered, or adjusted to make the day's sail go safe and smooth.

During the trip I pass along tips and tricks I've learned throughout my experiences. Each day is different and each sail or cruise is a custom to your style and particular needs and interests. My goal is to help you build the confidence you need to enjoy the everyday sail.

Some lessons Sailor for Hire will cover on the day's trip:

Sailing with two clients

Engine maintenance
Navigation techniques
Reading the wind and the water
Backing down or sailing off a mooring /anchor.
Tacking
Pointing-up
Running with the wind
Docking tips and tricks
....and Happy Hour

At the end of the day when we hit the dock you will feel a lot more confident in your abilities and your boat's performance.

In the words of one client "The instructional cruise that we paid less for and learned a whole lot more". Click here for more testimonials.
